Free Web NovelChapter 22: Marx’s Anger
Marx felt a strange image in his mind.
’A hologram of the Maicho Mountain Range?’
He thought to himself as he observed the image. It wasn’t just an image. It was live footage in his mind.
He could see every single Qi signature. More importantly, every Qi signature had a nameplate on top of it.
[Beast Soldier] [Beast Soldier] [Adult Beast] [Beast Soldier] [Human] [Adult Beast] [Beast Soldier]
’So, this is where he is hiding? It’s good that he didn’t run away.’
Marx’s eyes blazed with anger when he found the presence of his enemy.
After being reborn in this world, he had only one goal.
Become a powerful cultivator!
For this goal, he spent six years doing everything he could to improve his strength.
He even wrote the letter stating that he was poisoned, so he wouldn’t be able to return.
His goal was simple. If he could change his fate, he would do everything in his power to do so.
If he couldn’t change his fate, maybe he would die in the future. That wouldn’t be bad.
He was truly willing to die for his dream. It’s just that he didn’t want to die a useless death.
That’s why for three years, he didn’t return to his village, with a simple hope to change his fate.
He never thought his parents would give him a little sister during this time.
At the same time, he realized not just his parents but even the village chief didn’t believe his words.
After all, they were all cultivators. So, they definitely knew the dangers of being cultivators, and they also knew his stubborn nature.
That’s why the village chief didn’t act surprised when he saw Marx return.
At that moment, Marx truly cursed him for being too greedy and going after Yuki.
If he had silently returned home, maybe his parents wouldn’t have been destroyed. Even if he couldn’t kill that man with his cultivation, he had the System.
He could produce talismans that could do that.
This time, he wanted to kill this enemy himself.
After finding out his enemy’s location, Marx opened his eyes and placed the array plate in his spatial ring.
Then, he ran towards the enemy.
—————————
In a corner of a large cave, a young man was wearing a red robe over his muscular physique.
"Damn it! What exactly happened in that village? Why did all of those beasts die? Did the sect have a traitor?"
"No, it’s normal for a sect to have a traitor, but I never expected Inner Court to have one."
"Without my pets, my strength has decreased by fifty percent. I have to capture a few beasts in this place before leaving."
"Unfortunately, even with my Foundation Establishment Realm, I can’t capture an Adult Beast without the support of my pets."
A young man muttered, his eyes blazing with fury as he waited for the Adult Beast to leave the area.
Only then would he be able to capture other beasts. After all, Adult Beasts had a certain level of intelligence.
If they knew he was going to capture those beasts, they would immediately attack him and kill him.
"Hmm? Weird, why is there a human presence coming towards me? Wait, this cultivation. It’s just a Qi Sea Realm."
At this moment, he felt Marx’s presence. Unfortunately, he couldn’t sense emotion; otherwise, he would’ve felt Marx’s anger.
"It seems like True Thunder Sect has sent reinforcements to search the surroundings. Hehe! Fortunately, they sent an ant like him."
He sneered as he stood up from his spot and waited for Marx’s arrival.
When Marx reached there, the young man looked genuinely surprised.
"Wait, you are not wearing True Thunder Sect’s attire. Who are you?"
Unfortunately, Marx didn’t reply to him.
His body released the lightning energy that transformed into a suit of armor around his body.
After many uses, his armor was becoming more and more exquisite. At the same time, some small details like sharp spikes appeared on his forearms.
Whoosh!
In an instant, Marx crossed several meters and appeared in front of the young man, with his right forearm striking towards his face.
"Humph!"
The young man frowned, and his anger flared. His Divine Sense erupted like a volcano, but before it touched Marx, it instantly vanished.
"What?"
Splash!
The young man was stunned. But he quickly released his Qi, enhancing his strength to another level, allowing him to jump away.
Even so, the corner of his cheek was scratched by the sharp lightning spikes, drawing blood from his face.
At this moment, his anger was hitting its limit. After all, he previously considered Marx an ant.
But now, he was attacked by that same ant and injured as well.
"Damn you, bastard!" freeweɓnovel.cøm
He opened both of his arms, and two different weapons appeared on his palms. One palm held a long spear while the other held a circular shield.
His Qi merged with the spear and released a powerful beam of green light that tore through the air and rushed towards Marx.
Whoosh! Bang!
Marx ducked, dodging the beam while charging towards his enemy with extreme speed.
The beam struck a large tree, instantly turning it into ash.
’Damn it! This guy is a body cultivator on top of using that lightning armor. I need to use my shield all the time.’
Channeling his Qi into the shield, he immediately sensed Marx’s presence and placed the shield in front of him.
’No, he isn’t going to attack with his fist.’
Only a second later, the enemy’s Divine Sense captured Marx’s Qi flowing out of his finger, turning into a long rope.
[Lightning Serpent Spell]
In an instant, that rope turned into a serpent that wrapped around his left arm and crawled towards his body.
Because of the lightning’s paralyzing effect, the opponent could barely move.
’Damn it! Damn it! Damn it!’
"Noooooooooo!"
He roared.
At this moment, a layer of red Qi appeared over his body, creating a Qi coating that instantly helped him recover from the paralyzing effects of the lightning.
"I’m going to kill you, bastard!"
The young man roared, his face blazing with anger and his eyes looking bloodshot.
Marx didn’t say a word. He simply took out two talismans from the spatial ring and infused them with Qi.
[Golden Sword Talisman]
[Hurricane Talisman]
When that man saw those talismans, he knew he had to avoid them. With the blood Qi empowering his body, his speed increased immensely.
But the Hurricane Talisman was released instantly. It formed a powerful wind vortex at the center, where it pulled in everything
The trees were uprooted, and the entire ground was pulled towards the center.
Even though the young man was a Foundation Established cultivator, using his secret technique, he still couldn’t run out of the hurricane’s range.
Of course, he wasn’t worried about the hurricane. frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
Instead, his real fear came from the Golden Sword Talisman. The moment it was released, it turned into a ten-foot-long golden sword.
More importantly, unlike other talismans, Marx could control this talisman from afar.
"I can only use this."
He took out a talisman and slapped it on his chest. The talisman released a golden armor around his body.
While holding the shield in front of him, he braced himself for the impact.
His body was instantly pulled towards the center, where the golden sword thrust towards him at an extraordinary speed.
Bang!
The golden sword crashed against the shield. Although the shield was a powerful artifact, it was still just a Mortal Rank Top-grade artifact.
How could a beast tamer afford Spirit Rank treasures? That was impossible.
The beast tamers had to spend most of their money on training their pets, giving them important resources to increase their strength.
That’s why he was devastated when he found he could no longer feel his pet. At the same time, his strength also decreased by fifty percent.
Unlike normal cultivators, he couldn’t spend his money on Spirit Rank weapons and spells.
Crack! Bang!
The golden sword pierced through the shield and launched towards him.
The young man panicked. His talisman was also a Mortal Rank talisman. His shield did stop the sword for a moment, but it didn’t decrease its power.
This was a Spirit Rank Top-Grade Talisman, several times stronger than his.
In fact, if Marx’s Qi were at the Foundation Establishment Realm, he could easily kill even a late-stage Foundation Established cultivator with this.
His own Qi was limiting the strength of the talisman.
Bang! Crack!
The golden sword struck the golden armor and pierced it within a few seconds.
"Nooo!"
The young man felt true despair. All of his cultivation, all of his treasures, mattered nothing in front of this sword.
But just when this sword struck his chest and made a small hole, it instantly vanished, turning into golden light.
This was why not everyone could afford to use an offensive talisman. One use and they became useless.
Just when he thought he was saved, a hand wrapped around his neck.
A pair of cold eyes was reflected in his pupils as he heard Marx’s voice for the first time.
"You will not die an easy death."
